The cable report from Duenos Ayres of Brazil's willingne:s under certain eclroum- stances to recognize the Cubans as belliger- euts Is causing much comment in oMcial cir- cles in Washington, although cable inquiries have not yet brought efther confirmation or denial, Under ordinary circumstances little re- liance Is placed {nthe Brazilian reports com- in: via Buenos Ayres, but in this case it is known than an extensive agitation in favor of the Cuban insurgents has been going on rec*atly through Brazil, The Braailian papers up to the 25:h ult, have been received by officials, and show that the press and public have been besieging the Brazilian Congress, now in session, to recognize the Cutan insurgents, EX-CONSUL WALLER'S FATE, It has been understood all along that tne fate of Ex-Consul Waller, who i» still held in Imprisonment by the French at Marseilles tial which sentenced him, and, therefore, the State Department has direcied its efforis mainly to obtaining a copy of the record of the court, careful examination of the docaments is be ing made, and already there have been de- veloped some points, in the nature of what may be fatal flaws, that in the ead may form the basis of a demand for reiease of the pris- oner, In atleast two points it has been found that the proceedings of the court martial were in violation of the French law, and {fsucha case arose in the United States this would be sufficient ground for the setting aside of the proceedings and the sentence, and the re- leases of Waller. In the firet place, the court was composed of five ofMicers, whereas the Frene: military regulations are said to require at least seven poisons to sit on the court. Put more im- portant than this, it has beea discovered that Waller was not really tried as charged, but that as the trial progresss! evidence was taken on another charge not included in the riginal matter, and that might be called a supplementary, but {rregu- iar charge, that Waller was convietad, Aside of irregularity of the proceedings may in the Ambassador Euatls, STILL SILENT AROUT YENEZI Ela Even after the prastical confirmation from Br.tish sources of the statement that the State Department bad addressed a strong letter upon the Venezuelan boundary dispu e for delivery to the British Foreign Office, the ocfMoials at the ftate Department refuse to make any ad- mission touching the subject, The guarded and evident y inspired com- ment of the leading Brit sh newspaper upon this letter has attracted serious atteatizn among the diplomatic body here, aad thoy see in it a good deal cf significance, and possibly a threat of grave com lications to foliow, The s'atement that is held to be of pare Ueular significances is that the British Gov. ernment regards the viens set forth in Bee- retary Olney’s letter as so important that a long time must be taken for its considera- tion. As thers is nothing new to Great Britain, especially In an enusciation {a a mild form of the Monroe Doctrine, it is as- sumed here that the only purpose of delay- ing a response which the terms of the letter sent promptiy, is toaflcrd the British Gov srnment an opportunity to consult some of the othor great European powers upon ihis subject, Most of these powers are concerned in the fortunes of American States, some directly, es France and Spain, through their eolonial possessions, and oihers through heavy in- vestments of their citizens in securities and concessions, The doctrine lald down by Secretary Oiney, i carried to Its logical conclusion, probably would estop any Interference by lores on the part of a European power ia the affairs of aa Amerie n republic, and Also, as in the case of Venezuela, which may find a paraliel in tbe ease of the boundary dispute b tween France and Brazil, prevent any of these European nations frcm extend Ing their eclonial possessions in this hemis- phere, Therefors, it is Lelleved by some diplomats to be within the range of poseibili y that Great Britaln may have in contemplation a uslon with some of the other European powers in a joint refusal tu accept the doctrine laid down by Monroe, SEVENTY-SIX INJURED.

Particulars of the Revolt, in Which the Queen Was Probably Killed. Information of the formidable uprising in Corea, resulting in the disappearance and probable death of the Queen and the landing of military forces by the United States and European powers has been received by Min- ister Kurino, of Japan, at the legation in Washington, from the foreign office at Tokio and Is quite sensational, United States marines were landed from the Yorktown to the number of sixteen, It Is belleved miso that British marines have been landed. Besides these, the Japanese have a considerable force of soldiers at Seoul who have been preserving order It appears that the troub e had its incep- tion through the Queen's dislike of the newly organized soldiers of Corea, The old sol. diers had the primitive equipment of the far East. But with the progress of Japanese influence in Corea two Lattalions of Corean troops were organized cn molern methods. Each batta fon numbered six hundred men, armed with modern weapons, They worse well drilled and officered, When the Queen showed her disfavor to- ward these new troops, they appeaied to the Tal-Won-Kun, a powerful chief who bas long been at enmity with the Queen.
